Chapter 305 - 305 295 292 Ye Chen's Change

305: Chapter 295 Chapter 292: Ye Chen’s Change 305: Chapter 295 Chapter 292: Ye Chen’s Change Feng Zhixiao returned to the second floor, where Ye Chen stood by the window.

At that moment, the winter sunlight showered over the man, radiating a brilliant glow.

Ye Chen cradled a cup of tea in both hands, his gaze fixed on the bustling University City outside the window.

Feng Zhixiao didn’t dare disturb Ye Chen, she barely stepped foot inside before she stopped herself, turned around inside, and walked back out.

Liu the Tyrant and others were drinking downstairs, and when they saw Feng Zhixiao come out, Liu the Tyrant and the rest immediately stood up and called out, “Zhi Xiao, come have a drink with us!”

“Alright!” Feng Zhixiao nodded.

“What’s up with Brother Chen?” Liu the Tyrant asked curiously, his tiger-like eyes scanning Feng Zhixiao.

“Who knows.

Ever since last night’s trouble with Liu Momo, Brother Chen hasn’t been in a good mood!” Feng Zhixiao sighed and said, “This incident with Princess Momo has caused a significant change in Brother Chen’s temperament!”

Everyone nodded in agreement, sensing the change in Ye Chen.

He had caught Yan Bu’er several times before, only to let him go.

Because Yan Bu’er’s halo had not been removed, killing him would definitely draw the attention of the City Government, leading to a series of events.

Sometimes, one thing could drastically change the entire situation.

Life is like a game of Go; one wrong move, and the whole game is lost.

Yet last night, Ye Chen got angry.

Because of Princess Momo’s incident, Ye Chen harbored the intent to kill.

That one act immediately caused a butterfly effect, sending the entire Jianghuai City into turmoil.

There were significant changes taking place in the underworld of Jianghuai City, and the changes were still unfolding.

“No matter what, Brother Chen’s decisions are never wrong!” Liu the Tyrant gulped down a heavy shot of liquor and said, “Following Brother Chen, even if it leads to a dead end, we have no regrets!”

“That’s right!” Tie Niu, sitting beside him, nodded and said, “Now, the brothers have all ceased training and are back holding down our territory.

Smoke is rising from all corners of Jianghuai City.

There could be a shift at any moment; let’s just wait and see!”

“Brother Chen just said he wants to give an explanation to the underworld of Jianghuai City!” Feng Zhixiao held a bowl of liquor.

Everyone was gathered together, their mood especially heavy.

After all, with such an incident, everyone was on high alert.

They gathered together while others from different gangs came and went outside the window.

Ye Chen sat quietly alone on the second floor.

People should have memories, but what kind of pain hides in the heart of someone without memories?

No one knows!

No one understands that a person without memories has a longing to delve into those deeply buried recollections, like a monkey that sees ripe peaches on a tree but cannot reach them, or a fox that can’t reach the grapes beyond the fence.

Killing Yan Bu’er did not bring Ye Chen any regret, because Yan Bu’er deserved to die.

He had laid hands on someone he shouldn’t have.

Liu Momo was a piece of his own heart, as important to him as Li Ruo was in his eyes.

To protect them was as critical as his own life, perhaps even more so.

Ye Chen lit a cigarette, the light smoke curling around him.

He turned and sat down on the sofa, his eyes squinting.

Not a single day passed without him having such profound eyes.

If Yao Yue were there, she would surely realize that Ye Chen had reached a new peak of maturity.

Compared with his past self, Ye Chen had matured a great deal during his two years in Jianghuai City.

He had transformed from an innocent person into a cunning fox.

He had seen the extravagance of the city and its dark underbelly.

Faintly, Ye Chen could feel a thunderous drumming in his mind.

That earth-shattering sound seemed to remind him of a wild past, a past filled with great achievements, a mysterious past.

But when Ye Chen tried to reach for that seemingly tangible past, everything changed.

Ye Chen sighed.

He understood that no matter what kind of past he had, he still had to face it.

He set the teacup down on the coffee table, then flicked his cigarette butt into the ashtray.

Then, he got up and left the room; as the door closed heavily, the hot tea still steamed.

The room was empty.

As Feng Zhixiao and the others drank their liquor and gnawed on beef, a figure appeared beside them.

Feng Zhixiao startled, quickly tossing the beef bone onto the table, then stood up and said, “Brother Chen, why don’t you… have some with us?”

“No, thanks!” Ye Chen shook his head and said, “Get everyone together.”

“Ah?!” Confused, Feng Zhixiao hurriedly put down his chopsticks and nodded, “Right, I’ll get the brothers assembled!”

Following Feng Zhixiao’s call, the core disciples of the Heavenly Reversal Gang quickly gathered on the second floor.

This time, everyone showed up.

Feng Zhixiao, Da Hei, Li Tieniu, Jiang Wei, Liu the Tyrant, and the recently recruited Xiao Bai were all present.

The only ones missing were probably Haozi and Da Xia, who stubbornly stayed in prison, causing trouble among the inmates.

All members were assembled in the casino’s second floor.

While the casino downstairs buzzed with activity, an important meeting that could mark a turning point for the Heavenly Reversal Gang was taking place upstairs.

Perhaps from this day forward, the Heavenly Reversal Gang would step into a new era, or it might become a part of history, a history that would never be remembered.

The atmosphere at the scene was very somber, with everyone looking straight ahead.

Ye Chen sat in the central position, with Feng Zhixiao and the others to his left and right.

About ten people were present in total.

Everyone knew that now was not the time to speak, as the boss’s mood was not the best.

The entire atmosphere followed the changes in Ye Chen’s expression.

“My brothers!” Ye Chen slowly stood up from his chair and looked at everyone before speaking, “The Heavenly Reversal Gang has come this far thanks to each brother’s hard work, not just my own efforts.

The Heavenly Reversal Gang is slowly growing stronger.

As the saying goes, ‘Too much of anything is bad.’ It’s like someone who has just entered the political arena; everything in the future could change his destiny.

Every aspect can affect his future.

Will he be a corrupt official or an honest and upright one?”

Everyone fell silent, although everyone understood the implications in Ye Chen’s words, not a single person was willing to take a stand.

Without understanding Ye Chen’s inner thoughts, no one would dare to interrupt, not even Feng Zhixiao, who was obediently quiet.

Everyone knew that Ye Chen and Feng Zhixiao shared the closest relationship.

If even Feng Zhixiao wasn’t speaking, it was even less likely for others to do so.

Ye Chen’s ideas became the ideas of the group.

Whether dealing with corrupt officials or honest ones, they would follow Brother Chen to the end.

“My brothers,” Ye Chen sat down on the chair and said, “Today, here, I just want to ask you all one question.

If the Heavenly Reversal Gang grows stronger, what’s the first thing you want to do?”

The crowd was taken aback and no one could answer.

Seeing the silence, Da Hei stood up, glanced at Ye Chen, and said, “If the Heavenly Reversal Gang becomes powerful, you have to remember your promise to me, to avenge me!”

“And what else?” Ye Chen scanned the crowd.

At that moment, no one dared to look Ye Chen in the eye because no one there could answer his question.

They were all from the grassroots level, never having any grand dreams.

Feng Zhixiao, whose parents were businessmen, drifting like duckweed.

Li Tieniu, a discharged soldier without a military registry.

Jiang Wei, the son of the City Secretary, who fantasized about being surrounded by followers, leading a bunch of little brothers around Jianghuai City.

Liu the Tyrant, the river and sea bandit who roamed across several provinces and cities…

They were all people from the lowest strata of society, living each day with their heads at stake, merely hoping for a day when they could have money to spend and alcohol to drink.

“You all don’t know, not one of you has a dream of your own!” Ye Chen said with a faint smile, “In the future, once the Heavenly Reversal Gang becomes as powerful as the Flame Dragon Gang, then, you’ll become just like them.

Bullying the kind, fearing the evil, oppressing the people and committing wrongdoings everywhere.

Hence, we would be following in the footsteps of the Flame Dragon Gang…”

“Brother Chen, who says we don’t have dreams!” Feng Zhixiao immediately stepped forward and said, “What is the underworld?

It’s a road that never ends.

I’m willing to follow Brother Chen to the apex of the world.

Let the Heavenly Reversal Gang become the number one gang in the world!”

“I’m willing too!” Liu the Tyrant immediately stepped forward.

As Ye Chen’s most loyal follower, there was nothing he was unwilling to do.

“I’m willing too!” At that moment, everyone stood up, their teeth clenched, and Feng Zhixiao’s words ignited the fire in their blood.

“That’s great!” Ye Chen said excitedly, “Since we have a dream, let’s strive for it.

Since we have a dream, then let me tell you, from today on, we will officially become the number one gang in Jianghuai City, replacing the Flame Dragon Gang’s position!”

Roars erupted…

Everyone roared in rage, excited beyond measure.

They had thought Ye Chen would remain silent, but his silence was the prelude to an even more earth-shattering burst.

Ye Chen said with a cold laugh, “Starting today, the Heavenly Reversal Gang will establish the Eight Hidden Generals!”

“Feng Zhixiao, heed my command!” Ye Chen said with a cold smile.

“Brother Chen, I’m here!” Feng Zhixiao immediately stepped forward.

Ye Chen looked at him seriously and said, “As the first Hidden General of the Heavenly Reversal Gang, are you willing?”

“Ah?!” Feng Zhixiao was startled and exclaimed, “Brother Chen, I…

the first one?”

“That’s right!” Ye Chen nodded and said, “Ranking doesn’t matter, nor does strength, only loyalty does!”

“I’m willing!” Feng Zhixiao was incredibly excited, his eyes showing two touches of excitement.

How could he not be willing?

He had never imagined that he held such a place in Brother Chen’s heart, and he was deeply touched.

To be the first of Ye Chen’s Eight Hidden Generals was an even more pleasant surprise.

“Liu the Tyrant, heed my command!” Ye Chen shouted loudly.

“Brother Chen, I’m here!” Liu the Tyrant was instantly excited.

Shit, if the first was taken, it must be his turn for the second, right?

He was overjoyed.

He quickly swallowed a few times, but what came next nearly made Liu the Tyrant faint.

Ye Chen said with a cold smile, “You are appointed the fourth Hidden General, are you willing?”

Liu the Tyrant puzzledly touched his head and asked in astonishment, “Brother Chen, where are Lao Er and Third?”

“Shit, do you even have to ask?

It’s obviously gone to Haozi and Brother Big Shrimp!” Jiang Wei grinned from the side, convinced he would make the list.

The existence of the Eight Hidden Generals in Ye Chen’s hands would surely shock the world.

Mixing with Brother Chen was all about hot blood and passion.

“That’s correct,” Ye Chen nodded and said, “I am crystal clear on who should be one or two.”

“I’m willing!” Liu the Tyrant immediately nodded.

Shit, being the fourth isn’t too bad either.
